]]> <![CDATA[HOWTO: Actually Use Your Frequent Flyer Miles]]> This is useful information.... But it also shows that the airlines have lowered our expectations to a ridiculous point. Now we're grateful to pay "only" $50 or $100 for the privilege of using the miles we earned for the flights they promised would be free.

Instead of just accepting that as the status quo, maybe we should actually be complaining about it a little bit.
